MICRO ELECTRO MECHANICAL SYSTEMS CERTIFICATE PROGRAM MEMS is an interdisciplinary field related to technologies used to fabricate nano to micro scale devices and system-on-a-chip. The MEMS devices and systems embed electrical, mechanical, chemical, and hybrid mechanisms to realize devices and systems for a broad array of applications such as physical sensors, biomedical systems, and complex multi- functional nano-micro systems. MEMS combine expertise from many disciplines, including but not limited to all fields of engineering, biology, chemistry, informatics, medicine, and physics. Typical MEMS devices combine sensing, processing and/or actuating functions. They typically combine two or more electrical, mechanical, biological, magnetic, optical or chemical properties on a single microchip.

NANOTECHNOLOGY CERTIFICATE PROGRAM PRE-SURVEY
What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at length scales spanning 1 – 100 nm. It is having a revolutionary impact on a wide range of science and engineering fields.
To learn more: www.nano.gatech.edu
Why should I study Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology education will prepare you for exciting career opportunities in areas such as electronics, energy, information technology, pharmaceuticals, and medicine. It will also
prepare you for cutting-edge research opportunities in graduate school.
